Curtain only blocks the direct sunlight at the window, but the problem when the house is facing west with direct sunlight is the concrete will be heated up as well uppon sunset.

If heat is not an issue and only the glare of the sun is the only concern, then curtain, blind or other alternatives would solve the problem.

Window tint might help too.

Good window tint , may I suggest V-Kool, 3M, or Huper Optik.

Black absorbs heat

May I suggest exaust fan, it does a good job too if U don't want to ON the air conditioner for too long.

Once U have shaded the windows, the only heat source is frm the absorbed heat in the concrete of the wallings. Even if U ON the fan to the MAX, U might still feel the stuffiness. Therefore a good ventilation by using exhaust fan might be able to help out.

Ottherwise, U will have to find a way to sprinkle water to the outer wall to dissipate the heat

Can turbine ventilators be installed on condo or high rise property? I wanna do it too...

Even if the management allows, but since mine is a high rise property, which means no roof, so, which part the ventilation turbine can be installed? Can install on the wall?

lol

, question was so, can this turbine ventilator be installed on high rise property?

If top floor can since the roof is at the top of top floor?

Like the one mentioned Post #8?

lol, no need die die la, otherwise I'll be the first to die . In fact I'm not staying at top floor. Guess for high rise, the only ventilation method is still exhaust fan. Any other options?

But can it be done if living in a high rise community?

Even if the management is doing it, it would not because of the heat issue which is as per topic discussion, but it would be aesthetic issue instead.
